Are you searching for unique things to do in Melbourne? Love fashion? This course is a unique opportunity to learn Couture beading and embellishment with Couture dress designer Charlotte Appleby in Melbourne!
This two-day course will provide you with an in-depth approach to tambour beading and couture embellishments practised in the Couture houses of Paris today. It will cover the tambour beading technique using silk organza, seed beads and bugle beads to cover the basic chain stitch and a vermicelli design.
The second day will cover couture embellishments including ribbon work, three-dimensional beadwork and flowers.
Course outline:
Day one:
This class series runs over 2 consecutive days.
This class is great for a birthday or hens party.
Couture Bead Masters is founded by Charlotte Appleby a British Couture dress designer, trained at London College of Fashion in Handcraft and Production tailoring. I initially worked within fashion, film and theatre before setting up my own business The English Tailoress. I always had a passion for couture beading and applied it to many of my eveningwear and bridal designs. I learnt the skill in 2007 through a workshop and became hooked on the ‘Luneville’ technique. This technique is practised in the couture houses in Paris today however its origin dates to the early 1800s.
I celebrate the traditional art of couture beading and share my experience with other designers, enthusiasts and companies worldwide. I set up Couture Bead Masters to maintain these artisanal skills within the industry to keep the traditional techniques alive.
Alongside my private commission work, I educate Internationally running workshops and courses teaching specialist skills executed in my work. I also provide specialist couture supplies and online resources sharing my knowledge and continued appreciation of couture beading and embellishment.
